What colour

<< < (5/5)

mattsz:
FWIW, the '77 USA bikes all had the forward-placed foot pegs and shift lever attached directly to the shaft - see attached.  Yours appears to have a "rear-set" foot peg, and the shifting linkage, so it's not likely to be a USA model...

Had a reply from Honda Customer Service on Friday saying the original colour code was R-25, which I believe is Light Ruby Red, so that's the colour I'll be going with.  Thanks again everyone for the advice.

DaveN:
I've finished my '77 reg 400F in the current Honda Milano Red which is a very close match to the original Light Ruby Red.

I had the same confusion over was it it an F or F2 as it was first registered on 30th March 1977, but the frame/engine numbers are within the 400F UK range. I guess it was loitering in a showroom for a while.

Hi Dave

That looks nice and thanks for sharing the paint code

Planning to restore my tank and side panels over the winter so looks like I have found the ideal colour match as current red is a bit more brighter




Thanks again al
